Dorfler brazilwood bows are a matter of fact. A finely adapted trio is put to use in the construction of the 301D violin bow. Massaranduba for the stick, genuine ebony for the frog, and mother of pearl for the eye. All combined, these result in a bow that lies particularly well in the hand of the musician. The dark black fully lined, very dense wood of the frog lends these bows to play with a pronounced harmonic tone.
